Abstract: | Adaptations to attachment, respiration, nutrition, and pollution of sedentary gastropods with cowl-shaped shell living in littoral conditions and prone to the influence of abiotic factors are analyzed. Weight properties of individual parts of the radular apparatus related to scrapping mode of nutrition are discussed. The content of hemoglobin in radular tissues of some representatives of Patellidae, Acmaeidae, and Siphonariidae families is comparatively evaluated. |
